A pair of new assignments will be available, and you can freely choose from them. For the sake of this walkthrough, we chose the assignment of getting ourselves horribly maimed and injured so that Moira can study the effects of our injuries before healing us back up. Just like the self-radiation test, this is more an assignment of will than one of difficulty. After all, it's really not that hard to get yourself terribly injured in the Capital Wasteland. If you want to go for an optional objective, be sure not only to get yourself horribly injured, but make sure to break a limb as well.

As if it comes as any surprise, you should be able to maim yourself effectively without having to leave Megaton at all. This is by far the easiest part of any chapter for the survival guide, so be thankful! Of course, the payout isn't all that impressive either, but at least this shouldn't take more than a couple of minutes. The first thing you're going to want to do is injure yourself below 50% of your health. This can be achieved easily by falling from a high point somewhere in Megaton. You may have to do this a few times to find a spot that will injure you without killing you -- the balcony next to the detached jet turboprop is a good place to start. Once you've been effectively injured, you'll then want to take a Frag Mine from your inventory. Place it in front of you and draw your weapon, shooting it while standing as near to it as possible. This should injure at least one of your limbs without killing you.

Now that you've had your fill of brutal self-mutilation, it's time to head back to Moira and talk to her about your injuries. She'll revel in the fact that you've really messed yourself up good (she's a little sick in the head, clearly) and then patch you up, also rewarding you with an Environment Suit and around four Med-X, if you went for both the mandatory and optional objectives. But no, friends, your adventures with Moira haven't yet ended. In fact, they've kinda just begun.
